I envision p!noah being like little buddy from the splatoon series

Owen throws him at people and he will bite them until they shake him off or go unconscious whichever is first

Will also probably dig stuff out of the ground that he can just detect for whatever reason

Apologies, I got splatoon brainrot really hard and all I think of when I hear “little buddy” is that little bastard salmon

I really need to play Splatoon 3. I love that series but I just haven't had the time or energy to get into the newest game.

And you're spot on there about p!Noah being Owen's little buddy, especially post "reveal".

-

In Greece, these two would make a killer duo for the wrestling challenge since Owen could and would just scoop up Noah and throw him at the opposing team, encouraging him to run wild. And, oh boy, can p!Noah go wild.

Now, both Courtney and Sierra are pretty overconfident in their assured win for this challenge, since Courtney assumes that Noah and Owen are both relatively harmless (since she didn't witness the bus scene) and Sierra's too hyped up on Defending Cody Juice to really care about who she's facing off against - her main priority here is taking our Courtney for disrespecting Cody. Which is their downfall, since when Noah's launched towards the pair like a missile by Owen, neither of them anticipate the sheer carnage he wreaks upon landing. The two of them come out of the challenge with cuts and bruises aplenty, scattered bite and scratch marks still bleeding sluggishly as they scamper out of the ring tailed by a manic bookworm hot on their heels.

Courtney especially never would've thought the little guy had it in him; the wildness of his eyes and the shine of blood against razor-sharp teeth really painted a picture of a feral beast, as opposed to the generally well-kept and mild cynic she'd come to know. She finds herself genuinely fearing for her wellbeing, at least for a moment.

Then, as the girls exit the ring, Noah stops suddenly. He comes to a standstill at the edge of the ring, centimetres away from disqualifying himself, and all signs of his unhinged mania vanish like smoke. Noah lifts himself from the near four-limbed scampering he'd been doing into his usual nonchalant crouch, brushing the dust from his vest, patting down his hair and (reluctantly) wiping the speckles of blood from his nails and teeth. Regaining his usual composure. Then he turns on his heels to saunter across the ring back over to Owen, who at this point is used to Noah's scarily quick code-switching and greets his carnage-wreaking little buddy with a smile, a thumbs up and a big ol' hug! They won the challenge, after all, that's means for celebration!

(When Gwen comes back from her challenge, she asks Courtney what savage animal she was attacked by - as both Courtney and Sierra look about as worse off as Duncan, who was mauled by a bear - and Courtney promptly answers that she doesn't want to talk about it.)

-

I imagine Owen and Noah's dynamic post-London would essentially be the two of them acting like a dog owner and their overzealous puppy, but they switch roles so often the lines get super blurred. One moment Noah's trying to bribe Owen into taking the fall for him with the sweet treats from first class (it works every time), the next Owen's daring Noah to do something dumb and stupid and just dangerous enough to pique his thrill-seeking interest. They share a braincell and neither of them use it.

Premise: Seventy years after the events of Silver Snow, Byleth and Claude reunite on a farm in Almyra.

Rating: Teen and Up (old man angst; language; Tense Situations)

Chapters: 4 of 7 (6 with an epilogue)

Words: 16k (53k cumulative)

Chapter Summary: In the wake of an assassination attempt on his son, the King of Almyra, Khalid does his best to keep up morale and maintain an air of normalcy. But between fears of a potential attack on the farm and the unrelenting rains that threaten to cause disaster for the nearby village, he's got his work cut out for him.

That's not to mention all of the strange happenings surrounding the professor recently. It makes sense that people would start asking questions when memories conflict with reality, or when age-old afflictions suddenly abate. Although they aren't demanding them yet, they'll want answers soon, but how can Khalid tell them the truth when he doesn't know it himself?

The professor is changing, too, and as much as Khalid hates to admit it, he's growing afraid of who she's becoming—or whatever it is she's been this whole time.

I recently found out people ship Cassandra with Apollo.

My initial reaction was...

Just tan their hides. You know what happened to her because the the bastard, don't you?..

Then, I was overwhelmed by morbid curiosity, and checked AO3. People are writing rape fics about them. ...Why?..

Could I ever see Cassandra x Apollo?.. I don't know, maybe. But, definitely not the nonsense I mentioned. Dubcon at most. I guess, he might somehow coerce her into sleeping with him, and later rescue her from the fall of Troy, because she's pregnant with his child, or something (Zeus would be pissed, I'm fine with that).

Sounds like an intriguing story, with a lot of morally questionable elements. I can imagine Apollo confiding in Artemis, wondering why his wife is so upset. She'd just go "are you serious rn?.. -_-".

...What, you're surprised I'm among those I wish to hide with a broom? Don't be. It happens quite often, actually.

Just found out my childhood best friend is engaged... logically this makes perfect sense considering she's only a few months younger than me, completely normal thing to happen, but considering she is and will always be either 8 or 15 in my head, this is fucking bizarre.

went to a museum today and this painting made me think of sleepy Din getting some rest with his beskar spear after a fight 🥺

i honestly really love reading your tags on the art you rb!! you're so enthusiastic about each piece and your comments help me to enjoy the art even more tbh!!

oh me too! it's so easy to just scroll scroll scroll and look like 3 seconds at someone's art, think "cool" and hit 'like' and then forget about it. when i write these comments i'm forced to pause and think why i like it. so it really makes me enjoy the art more too! it's part of the reason why i keep doing it now that i've gotten in the habit!

I gotta ask, recently I reread Dare Disturb the Universe and although I am neither expecting or demanding an update, I have a question about it. Lightning says to Hope he hasn’t grown a bit since she last saw her in one of the later chapters, did that mean anything? Like he as Bhunivelzes ”perfect” version or just a scrawny kid who’s due for a growth spurt?

I do love this fic, especially the beginning. Love how Bartholomew is actually a part of the story, and Rygdea, and the whole dynamic with the group. I wish we got more Final Fantasy XIII l’cie gang than we actually got from the saga :,(

Thank you! That is a very good catch, omigosh!

The answer is actually a little bit of both: that Hope was a scrawny kid who needs a few years to grow, lol, but also that there was a bit of a lingering effect concerning what happened in canon that took a little time to wear off. His growth was just a little delayed, but the person who notices him growing the most is actually Vanille (who thinks it's cute he's shorter than her), who keeps mental tabs for how long she's got before he outgrows her. She dreads it a little but at the same time hopes to see it because it would be pure and physical evidence for her that the world is moving forward, and this time all of them get to move forward as well!

So in that way, both Hope and Dajh have their growths pretty carefully observed by the gang, lol.

After everything, FFXIII still is one of my favourite found families of all time and gosh, I really wish we need to see more of their shenanigans as well. TAT

Looking for some hope in the horizon and beyond

[masquenoire]

Good news and bad news! My contract has officially ended and as of today I am no longer employed. That means I’ve finally got time to catch up on drafts and have a little break before looking for my next job!

[carronpatrick]

Me - overwhelmed by even just living so I've been trying to organize my life and every tiny aspect of it to make it easier to deal with, so I've been silent - even privately - and going through every thing in this house in every box, bin, drawer, cabinet, and space in my mind to try to heal

Also me - just had to bookmark so I would finally close EIGHTY THREE tabs in an internet browser and still have 17 open in others because I can't just close them, because what if I need them one day 🫠

[squishescommishes]

@cncpuppy I sent an ask about this from my main blog but it's been a bit and I wasn't sure if it got eaten or not and I get anxious when I can't respond because I hate ignoring people's messages or even potentially seeming like i am-

Since this is a sideblog and your pinned says you only have messages open to mutuals, I can't respond to your commission inquiry directly in dm's at this particular moment, but if you were curious about getting a commission and maybe don't want to change your settings (incredibly understandable!!) if there's another way or place to message you directly then shoot another message in or send an ask and we can go over it! Additionally I can use this post as a bit of an update since this is part of what you asked: I'm very close to being able to post the site I've been putting together with my commission prices with examples and all so it's more easily available, and I'm working towards getting my patreon stuff ready for the new nsfw tiers ready so the goal for both being available to join/look at will be the beginning of january!! there's only a little bit more to do for both so i'm super excited 83 !!

@fearbend continued from here!

Haughtiness dripped from her every word. Clearly the girl not only knew her own talents, but was unabashedly proud of them. Childe couldn't help but chuckle, remembering back to his days as a common Fatui foot soldier when he'd worn a similar look each time he bested his training partners.

If they'd ended up bloodied and bruised by the time he was done with them? Well, someone had to push the Tsaritsa's soldiers to improve when his superiors at the time clearly hadn't.

"A Vision is far more than a trinket, though I can see how it may seem that way to those who don't have one," he said with a shrug. Challenging words lit a spark in his eyes, and his grin stretched wider—sharpened just beyond the realm of 'friendly.'

"Besides, there's far more to my power than a Vision or a Delusion. Not that I expect you to take my word for it, of course; I'd be glad to prove it, if you're brave enough to take me on."
